Default 1999 1200C Foward Controls conversion to Mid Controls

This conversion doesn't look too difficult as a swap, but I've got a quick question.

Can I modify my stock 1999 Forward Controls and use them for Mids, or will I need to swap them out entirely for Mids?

Thanks,
Rick C.

P.S. if you have mids that you don't want pls PM me & thanks!

If you find mids and want to sell the forwards, let me know what you're asking for them.

Some parts are interchangeable, but not many. Don't lose anything, you'll probably want to go back.

The only things you'll use from the forwards are the pegs & peg tension washers. The mids take different mounts & attach just infront of your kickstand position on your cover....From the picture, you can see one of the allen head bolts on the flat mounting surface just under the shifter peg that exits the primary cover.
